Skinning knife Maybe
Looks like a type of Gurkha found in Nepal. They came in all sizes from small like this to as big as a large machete. Some curved upward some downward with different shaped blades from chopping to stabbing. Handles usually either wood or brass.
You might also check Kris knives which commonly had a handle like this and were made for self defense.
Thank you very much
For somebody who wants to feel like they have a gun at a knife fight. LOL
